る。 In general, Nb 3 Sn conductors are made by embedding hundreds to thousands of Nb filaments in a Cu-Sn alloy base material and then heat-treating them at a desired temperature and time to form an Nb 3 Sn layer. made by. Therefore, the bending strain depends on the process from the time when the Nb 3 Sn layer is formed to the winding diameter of the coil. Therefore, Nb 3 Sn
If the layers are formed after being wound into a coil, the bending strain applied to the conductor is almost zero. However, for large superconducting coils, it is considered preferable to form a Nb 3 Sn layer and then wind the coil, in view of the need for a large heat treatment furnace and the accuracy of conductor winding after heat treatment.
